Lie A lie (also called prevarication), is a type of deception in the form of an untruthful statement, especially with the intention to deceive others, often with the further intention to maintain a secret or reputation, protect someone's feelings or to avoid a punishment. ...
White lie A white lie would cause only relatively minor discord if it were uncovered, and typically offers some benefit to the hearer. White lies are often used to avoid offense, such as complimenting something one finds unattractive. In this case, the lie is told to avoid the harmful realistic implications of the truth. As a concept, it is largely defined by local custom and cannot be clearly separated from other lies with any authority.

So now...the question is... Do you think that a white lie is acceptable? the act of lying, be it a real LIE or a white LIE, ultimately, they are still LIES.
The difference that it actually makes? One's own conscience.
Case Study: Say...I have a friend, X. and One day...he told Person A something...then next he went on to tell Person B something else and said that what X told A was just to make A happy(white lie). But have you ever wondered? That B could be the one who had fallen for the white lie("made happy") instead? or rather, they could be a Person C, Person D.... and the list goes on too?
If one could lie to another today, what makes you think you cant be the next tomorrow?
So..What do you think? Is white lie acceptable to you?
